I just bought a sweater (some assembly required)

Dear Diary,

I finished one of the Sodera Socks, but it didn't quite fit over my fat little calf, so I'm giving them to my littls sister in the end. However, since they aren't working out for me very well, I decided to get going on the Cherie Amour sweater from Knitty. So far, I've purchased some yarn that looks like this:
I'm so excited for it to get here and to cast on! I haven't knit a sweater in forever and I am really stoked.

A Knitting Dilemma

My Ravelry queue keeps calling my name and I am almost done with one Sodera Sock. My problem now is, should I put the socks into hibernation and finally start on Cherie Amour. Both projects are lace and a little complicated. It's not like I could use one as a break from the other. However, I am really getting antsy to start on the colorful Cherie Amour, in opposition to my white (but very sexy) Sodera.

I think that I may order the yarn for Cherie Amour and get going. It's a bulky yarn and supposidly a pretty quick knit. The question now is, which color should I go with? I love starting new projects.
